Alright, so here's what's been going on.  I'm trying to install electricsheep on Linux Mint 12 KDE and I'm using the linux install instructions on this site.  The first part worked (the 'sudo apt-get install subversion') part, but I'm not understanding the './autogen.sh' part (for wxWidgets -- yes I've downloaded and extracted it).

Here's what I'm getting:

$ ./autogen.sh
make: build/autogen.mk: No such file or directory
make: *** No rule to make target `build/autogen.mk'.  Stop.

I've tried searching for this all over and can't find any documentation on it that is helpful.

What worked:

installing subversion

' ./configure; make ; sudo make install' (for both wxWidget and flam3)

Opening electricsheep from the terminal (it opened a window showing the video)

What did NOT work:

anything to do with './autogen.sh'

electricsheep being set as screensaver.

I suppose it is also worth mentioning that I have since uninstalled electricsheep and removed all traces of it (that I know about) from linux.  I currently have the files needed to install, but am waiting to fix this error before I do that.

(sorry for edits.... as I re-read my post I think of more information that might be helpful.)

Any help would be appreciated.
